Just watched this nice #LixCon2026 talk on Zilch:
https://app.media.ccc.de/v/lixcon-2026-14-using-nix-without-the-nix-a-retrospective-on-zilch
It’s a Scheme interface to talk to the Nix daemon, it has a thing called “z-expressions” to capture context in staged code, client-side build hooks… sounds familiar, we should talk! :-)

@civodul Heh! « Like Guix, it is built on top of Scheme […] • Solid, reusable, Nix daemon protocol core • Intercompatible with Nixpkgs and other, arbitrary, Nix expressions. » 🤔 It could be nice to also be intercompatible with Guix, isn’t it? https://puck.moe/zilch/docs/
